UK based Microsoft partner igroup has launched its Azure Architecture Workshop in the Microsoft Azure Marketplace. Through the workshop, igroup customers can learn how to take advantage of the scalability, availability and security of Azure, with streamlined deployment and management.

The workshop is designed for UK businesses in all industries as part of an end-to-end process supporting and managing Azure. The session involves IT departments and stakeholders, with the aim of ensuring business objectives and software needs are uncovered, helping prioritise goals and mitigate risks that could disrupt a smooth deployment and user adoption.

According to a press release from igroup, the process creates an Azure blueprint that reflects a cloud infrastructure to fit companies’ goals and budgets without sacrificing security and performance.

“Our team regularly addresses Azure environments that have shortfalls in one or more aspects. We felt that the creation of this workshop would not only help to address these issues but also help businesses before the mistake is made,” said Steve Rastall, managing director at igroup. “If you haven’t put any infrastructure in place yet, then our best advice is to talk it through first with an experienced provider. We can’t emphasise that enough. Once the infrastructure is in place, it becomes more complex to unravel and resolve, and you may never achieve your optimal environment.”

“We’re excited to welcome igroup’s Azure Architecture Workshop to the Microsoft Azure Marketplace, which gives our partners great exposure to cloud customers around the globe,” said Sajan Parihar, director of the Microsoft Azure Platform at Microsoft Corp. “Azure Marketplace offers world-class quality experiences from global trusted partners with solutions tested to work seamlessly with Azure.”
